We learnt that Mr Makama did not report receipt of the weapons to the Force Headquarters, which top police sources said was against standard operating procedure.

When the inspector-general met with Mr Amosun at a meeting chaired by Senate President Ahmed Lawan on Tuesday afternoon, he did not yield to public demand for police’s intervention in the arms scandal.

Pictures circulated by the Senate President’s office showed Messrs Amosun and Adamu sitting only across one another on a midsize conference table — with Mr Lawan sitting on the table’s head in-between the duo.

The meeting discussed the plight of a Nigerian woman, Zainab Aliyu, who had been held in Saudi Arabia on drugs allegations.
